There is a new clause in the Rose contract that they have to periodically take a team from outside of the auto-qualify conferences. They could take care of that obligation by taking #3 TCU this year and then they are good for three or four years.

It's like the good ole' West Land Grab...
Big East is now getting into the NYC/Philly/NJ TV and recruiting market with Rutgers, the Western PA market with Pitt and WVU, the Florida market with South Florida, and Texas with TCU.
That's kinda big.
If they grab someone from the Carolina's (ECU Pirates maybe) then it's gonna be a far reaching conference.

Actually, Rutgers is quite attractive for any conference.
That is why the Big10 was flirting with them.
That is a huge TV market in that Philly/NJ area, and a big recruiting base for PA/NJ players.
And Rutgers has improved 2,000% in football since Schiano has been there.

by beating Boise State, Nevada cost themselves and every team in their conference $1 million. Hmmmm...
...probably should have just tanked the game.

Something awesome.
I think it's more appropriately stated that Boise St. cost themselves and every team in their conference $1 million. Blame BS, not Nevada.

I can't see how anyone could blame Nevada. If BS really were that good, deserving of a top 5 BCS ranking, and could provide additional revenue for the conference's schools, then they should have proven it.
lol, dude calm down. You are right, if BS were good enough for a BCS bid they would have proven that on the field, I am not questioning that. What I was trying to point out is that the way the BCS system is currently structured it gives conferences without an automatic BCS bid (and even those with an automatic bid BCS ) financial incentive to sway a games outcome one way or another. Had Nevada lost that game they likely would have 1 million more dollars in their pocket at the end of the season. From the perspective of a player, coach or fan, was it worth it to beat Boise State? Definitely.

Don't worry, I'm not bent out of shape if that's how I was sounding. 
Personally, I really couldn't care less, but I do know that the BCS system is super f***ed up.

Now, seriously, by show of hands; How many of you believe that Cam Newton and Auburn knew nothing about what the Dad/Minister was doing? (Pay for play).
Out of nowhere Cam's Dad fixed his church. Has not been able, or does not want to say, from where the money came. But NCAA found "not enough evidence" that Cam or Auburn were part of the schemerlyflag:
Do you still believe in Santa Claus?

I'd sooner believe in Santa than I would the notion that they didn't take any money, or were unaware of any potential wrongdoing.
It's all a stunt to keep Auburn in the championship game.

^Exactly. The NCAA doesn't want to ruin it's chances of having Oregon and Auburn playing for the NC.
